Dealing with the death of a parent.

If a parent dies you should be celebrating that they got to live a full life or close to it. More young people die then older people. Of course this is easier said then done.
 
For the person that gave me neg rep and called me stupid.

Maybe not in current day America but if you look at the history of the world, most people are lucky to live past their 40's. Oh ya you probably don't care about people from 3rd world countries or people of the past. Ya your probably right they don't deserve to live as long as we do.

People from the past and other 3rd world countries aren't really people so who cares about them right? We deserve to live long while others don't.

Sorry for off topicness. Someone called me stupid and I had to reply back.
 
Goddamn that's awful. I'm sorry for your loss. I wish there was some good advice I could give you to help you, but everyone deals with this in their own way and there is no right or wrong way. If you cry every night, that's fine. If you're angry, that's fine. Whatever helps you and your wife through this difficult time is what you need to do. Again, I am sorry for your loss.

Based on your lack of knowledge in the difference between "your" and "you're" and "then" and "than", I can tell you're not exactly Einstein.

Your statement was wildly inaccurate, so hopefully whomever called you stupid at least pointed that out. If your parents aren't turds and don't allow you to be killed while you're still developing in the womb and you actually get to live life, you're likely going to live to somewhere in your late 60's on average if you take the entire world population into account, depending on what set of numbers you're looking at(which are likely inflated anyway, but that's another issue). If you would have said something like, " There are many countries in Africa where entire populations struggle to grow old so you should just be happy remembering the time they/you were able live on earth", you would be accurate.
 
Aye. In regards to living as long as she did, I suppose you're right. Cape Town, where they lived after she was born, is the murder capitol of the world. They lived in a gated home with armed guards, and when she was about 15 they moved to the USA. Tuesday grows nearer, not looking forward to it. It's going to be a closed-casket funeral, no viewing. My dad and I went and saw her in the mortuary..well, at least part of her. The only thing we could see was probably from her eyebrows to her chin, and it wasn't pleasant, because she passed face-down, mostly on her stomach. I know it wasn't her, though, just her body. Thanks again for all the nice words and stories. And don't worry about any bickering..this is JazzFanz. A thread isn't a thread without bickering and bitching. Fight!
 
It's been 11 years today that I lost my Mother. It's not been easy. Just try and remember the good times.
